With mixed emotions - The Pampered-Z is sold.

So after 28 years, allot of time and money the car is going to a new home.

I really don't use it very much. Not racing it since everything worth racing in has gone 1/8th mile. No cruise nights around here, and the local car clubs have fallen apart. Over the last few years I've averaged less then 100 miles a year.

Just odd to see it go. I regret selling all my past cars, not sure if I will with this one?

Maybe old age just changes you???

Sorry to hear but I understand. It's getting to be a project just to get in and out of these cars. I've thought about it quite a few times but I still like to tinker and drive mine.

That's tough but hopefully the new owner will carry the torch and get enjoyment out of it.

That stinks. I'm sure you can always get a more streetable Camaro if you do regret selling.

I go through the same thoughts with mine but we do have excellent cruise nights, just only on Thursdays aka when it rains.

But my daughter absolutely loves riding in it already at less than a year old so I can't do anything now!

It went to a good home. The new owner picked it up Saturday morning and went straight to a car show with it! LOL!
